I remember a poor woman being decapitated by a truck on busy Saturday afternoon in the 80’s before they sorted out traffic lights on that corner.
Those maps look lovely.
I believe there is a huge technical issue with tracked trams managing to turn the degree necessary at Singers Corner, as in turning from Washington Street onto Grand Parade towards Daunt Square.
Thank you, that is where I must have read that originally

Probably the only solution really.Heading down in a single right-hand turn onto Grand Parade-South Mall seems more likely.
Which means they’ll settle on the opposite one ?Probably the only solution really.
Engineering wise it does not work to turn modern tram carriages in a tight "S" turn.Which means they’ll settle on the opposite one ?
Was she a cyclist?

I'm shocked how people are not being killed there daily, mostly pedestrians due to their stupid behavior.

No. She chanced running across from the front of the cinema to Singers corner, or vice versa, and truck turned without seeing her. RIP.Was she a cyclist?
Ok, I have a memory of a woman being killed there alright in the mid 80s and of people being very shook up over it, for some reason I thought it was a female cyclist.No. She chanced running across from the front of the cinema to Singers corner, or vice versa, and truck turned without seeing her.

Ah no, cyclists in those days had more sense and were aware of how vulnerable they were.Ok, I have a memory of a woman being killed there alright in the mid 80s and of people being very shook up over it, for some reason I thought it was a female cyclist.
